I SWER I say them before on there. Im not seeing the link I had before. But i saw black in your style somewhere on ebay for cheap last week.

If you don't mind me asking how much does it end up running from Rakuten? I've never bought through them before.

Anyone have any experience with these? If so, can you post a picture of how it hangs from the belt?

Looks great did you get the belt and the clip at the same time?

[beatle]

roughly the same amount of wear, the Tanner a bit longer than the belt

not a great picture, but i still love my brass key hook from corter!

My custom flail (which also doubles as key clip and wallet chain), made of copper ingots which were melted and hand fused into super thick links, then hammered to create a Roman-style texture.

[lostinthesupermarket]

Nice surface texture on that copper Mike.

For what, pray tell, does one use a "flail"?

[benbenben]

From eBay - showing signs of wear already.

Thanks mate.

For rambunctious neighbourhood encounters of the ethanol fuelled type.

Seriously though, the copper is really heavy, especially compared to my past wallet chains which have been either solid brass or stainless steel rings.

What are those little capsules for?

Icedrop

[mikecch]

What are icedrops?

Question for those with the open hooks like the ones above, have you ever had them fall off your belt loop? I understand that you'd probably have to be turned upside down or something but can't hurt to ask.

Similar for Beatle - Have you ever had that hook open up on you?

I'm looking at alternatives to my carabiner. Need to go through the EDC thread...

[beatle]

I'm using the SE key hook - never came off whilst wearing my IH's - but when I wore it with some jeans with thinner belt loops and forgot to adjust the gap it fell off as soon as I sat down...in other words - make sure to bend the opening tight enough , then it's fine

[nameness]

Thanks, I'll keep checking things out.

ERRRBODY ON DAT KEYHOOK.

What's everyone using for their car keys?

My keyhook has a small ring on it, with my house key and car key. And I attach my brass clip from my wallet chain, to the key hook. So it's nearly impossible to lose either or.

edit*

Oh and my keyhook has only fallen off while sleeping. Only a couple of times, but that was when I had it with just one key, no wallet chain on it.

It's gotten caught on shit, stuck between park benches (wood and plastic/metal,) and a whole bunch of other shit. Hasn't damaged it at all in any way.

Bumping, in need for some inspiration.

Considering a kawatako key hook atm

Corter Leather Bottlehook - can't tell you how many times I've been the only one with a bottle opener thanks to this thing.

You need a bottle opener for that?    It's a nice piece, but always looked too much like, well, a bottle opener to me. 

 

Dunno if it fits this thread, but the UES Key Rings are simply awesome.

 

I also like this hook:

my uniform experiment carbiner - it was stupidly expensive for a carabiner but i use it everyday. i had a fishhook a few years ago but it kept falling off and i found it kind of annoying.
